If you answered a question with another question, would you be forced to answer your own rhetorical question?

Short answer: no.

What's the long answer?

Technically, nobody could "force" me. However, depending on the nature of the rhetorical question I may or may not answer it.

noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Did Yahtzee coin that joke or did he steal it?

I have no idea what that means.

it means  :effort:

if you were stuck in a room with one game console and two games, what console and games would they be (YOU CAN'T PICK OOT YOU'RE TOO GOOD AT THAT GAME)

I would pick the NES, and my two games would probably be Clash At Demonhead and TMNT.

 I might replace TMNT with the Legend of Zelda, though. Hrmm................

oh hai kreebby i c u liek nintendo would you like an nes and both clash at demonhead and tmnt?  or possibly zelda 2?

they already have an nes but its one of those fake emulation systems (http://sae.tweek.us/static/images/emoticons/emot-pcgaming.gif)

I mean a REAL nes, not some abominable creation.  Those fakes ones have poor color translation and horrible sound emulation.  Also mastrobation station.

they bought tmnt number 2 after i informed them that play n trade has old gams but i didnt get to see it running on their setup while i was there

low tech low tech boo boo hiss hiss

I meant to say that chris chan is being silly. An emulation machine is a far more logical choice than dusty technology.

We haven't tried any NES games but the SNES actually has better imaging than on the original when it comes to A Link to the Past.

Maybe you guys have just played shitty emulating machines before :O

explaborate 'imaging'

The game world came out clearer, the colors were more vibrant and the movements were actually smoother on the FC Twin than the original SNES.

this disagrees

also the snes can output to svideo which is far cleaner than the composite youre stuck with

First one in each video looked the best.

I think we actually bought a different output cable, but don't quote me on that.

I compared both awhile back and the FC Twin was better on the same TV with the same type of cable. I just checked and there is no nintendo logo smearing what-so-ever.
Regardless, we'll get the original NES as soon as moiph stops saying "well see I'd get the one from my parents but what if my brothers want to use it".

hey just because it's sitting in some cabinet thing with dust on it and hasn't been used DOESNT MEAN IT NEVER WILL BE  :shifty then again maybe no one would notice if i just yoinked it away...  :shifty :shifty :shifty

Emulation can't legally emulate the Nintendo tech exactly, so its basically the cheap chinese knockoff of a designer handbag rather than the bag itself.  They could make it better, but they won't given the cost of said machines.

I am an illiterate piece of shit dratini is the silly one and just because the tech is old doesn't mean it is inferior.

tbqh emulation consoles have gotten better but they are still are not perfect and i mean they usually cost the same if not more expensive than the actual real hardware so why bother

Exactly my point.  They have to Pepsi the hardware without overshooting the market value of the originals.  Of course they're going to be inferior.

the real systems are probably better quality anyways despite being in some cases 25 years old. id wager those cheap system on a chip designs, while less technical, are still going to fail a lot more often in the future by virture of just being made with cheap as hell bargain bin pcb and components (this is the exact reason why around 2005 consumer networking equipment like routers and switches all went to shit and apple of all companies is actually one of the honestly good brands left)

basically its going to take an american company with the honest to goodness intention of pleasing retro gamers 100% with a quality product that'll last a long time before they will ever be taken seriously

SNES was going for $60 online. The FC twin cost less and had both the SNES and the NES (which was going for about $30-$40).

flea markets

ftfy

$70 at a flea market.

nigga u gotta learn 2 shop around

Brand new and definitely working versus "has not yet been tested".

Hmmm.

nothing new is ever sold broken

also lmao if u think the sweatshop in china/taiwan that assembled those retro consoles did any real testing to it.

*buys something 14x it's value somewhere else just because the cheaper one might not work*
*thinks spending $6.15 is too risky*

welp

The FC Twin that I'd already played at a friend's house came from the same supplier.

Also I checked ebay and everything at the same time. I could not find anything from a trust worthy seller.

Stop raining on my parade or I'll tell everyone about all that sex that we had while moiph was at work. I'll even tell MOLPH.

i already told you im an angry black raincloud

well stop being an angry black raincloud.

I can get you one for $20 plus a game.  It'd be a shitty Madden or other sports game, but it'd be a game.  If it doesn't work, I'll eat my own hat.

As a person who's been to the "sweat shops", you don't know shit.

And if you're going to get a machine that emulates it, just play it on your PC.

I love it when Khakain is predictable.

That's why it's called khakain.

cock-ane.

cocaine.

woah.


edit: sup it's kreebby moiph used my laptop and logged into his account and didn't log out. that douchenozzle.

You're one of the most predictable people on here. You trying to insinuate you know what you're talking about is going to be called out. That's just the way it is. Continue spreading your ignorance, but I'll call you out on it when you try to pass it off as wisdom.

 :shifty


pineapples.

CHINA CHINA CHINA POLICE

Didn't see that one coming though

Why did you expect to be called out if you thought it was so factual. I have no qualms with the rest of your claims. The BS line wasn't the cheap knock-off aspect, it was that factories don't test their product.

sorry youre so mad about an internet forum bro

you should find a new hobby

We should all find new hobbies. How about night boating?

:sailor

I'm not angry, I'm just saying it's not an accurate assumption to spread around.

Sure thing, Chairman.

Is the nature of this rhetorical question such that you will answer it?

No.

What defines such a nature, then?

A nature in which I am not suggesting anything.

Does this include suggesting as in implying, or just suggesting as in proposing something?

It includes both.

That is a confusing and nonsensical word filter, who made that and what does it mean?

 :shifty

If I was admin, I'd tell you.

Turn off censorship.

It's not on.

do u like michel jackson?

Do you have a middle name?

I don't really care about Michael Jackson.

Yes!

WHAT IS IT :D I have two.

Allison what is yours?

You're not suggesting anything there, so will you answer THAT one?

I would if I knew ;_;

My middle name is Gundam Wing.

 8)

Mine too!

Marry me?

squeeeeeeee~

OKAY!

I do not allow happiness and love in these threads. Get out.
